I saw the TRICK movie vcds in TS chinatown (the one at pearl centre). Looks like the movie vcds that u see but it has a outer cardboard covering if i'm not wrong. hope this helps. :D

Ch57 is Jet TV? Uurgh, they r recycling old shows again... :(
Jet in Taiwan is showing Orange Days now.. hopefully it'll be shown in Jet TV here soon :mrgreen:

Forget it, I"ve called them up and was told that due to the global distribution nature of the channel, those dorama that feature current 1st tier star will be having difficulty having their oversea (ex-taiwan) sold to them. Reason being that networks would definately want to sell them to indivial stations in each of the country than to collect lesser from selling to 1 network alone.

Currently 2 of the network specialised in Japanese programme in Taiwan, JETTV and Videoland is already under the same group and it seems that they have been alternatively showing that latest dorama that just ended in Japan weeks ago. Some taiwanese opinion is that this is one of the way Japanese and Taiwanese used to combat pirated VCD.

boy...isn't it a 'good time'? :bleh: they should change the slot with pi1 li4 huo3...(IMO)

What?! Then who would be able to watch it at this unearthly hour?! Let's write it and suggest that they change the timing...if not, they'll be just wasting $$ i think...

at least more will be able to watch the show! at the moment, dun think many will be watching...what with those who have to work, working and those who have to study, studying at that hour... :sweat:

i totally agree.. would rather they not show it until they find a more suitable time.. 3pm is crappy.. :bleh: :sweat:

Actually the first few episodes are just only introducing the characters so not much of action yet. But is a good show nevertheless. Since I took japanese studies as one of my modules in my first year at the uni, its quite interesting to watch what I have learned about the history of Japan. Oh and the stars looked fabulous even in japanese costumes!!!

good for you...bought spring, summer, autumn from taiwan and winter is missing...was planning on watching it only when i have the full set! :banghead:
